Avoid Unfriendly Staff at this Fleabag Motel

When we arrived our friend's room had the door and windows open as if the staff was trying to air it out. Unfortunately this wasn't working because the room smelled horrible and there was food left in the refrigerator. Our friend requested a room change, but was told the hotel was sold out and they would "give her a can of air freshener." The next morning our friend discovered her room had no shower curtain. Upon checkout we mentioned to the manager that we noticed at least three rooms that had not been used that our friend could have been moved in to. We also mentioned the missing shower curtain. Instead of an apology we were asked, "What would you like us to do? Your friend should have told us about the shower curtain."

Worst customer service, dirty room

When I checked in, I noticed that my room had an unpleasant odor. There was also someone elses drink in the fridge. I asked immediately to be changed to Another room, and was told I could not be accommodated because there were not anymore rooms that had a single bed that were unoccupied. There were, however, many rooms that were empty, but they did not want to "upgrade" me. In the morning, I realized that I did not have a shower curtain. When I checked out, I told them about the missing shower curtain. They said I should have told them earlier so it wasn't their fault. They refused to compensate me in any way, and we're actually arguing with me that certain things were my fault.
